Chapter News
Website of the year
South Central Chapter of AAAE
Each month, we choose a chapter website to highlight in the StarChapter newsletter, and the Website of the Year award recognizes our favorite website from those 12. Chosen by StarChapter team members for its overall design, active event schedule and great use of our content sections, for this first award we chose the South Central Chapter of AAAE.
The South Central Chapter of AAAE consists of individuals and businesses involved in the management of airports across Kansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Texas and Central America. Their purpose is to augment the educational efforts of the parent organization (AAAE) and promote the airport management industry and related careers.
What stands out about their website is how it incorporates design trends that make for easy and strong engagement with members, member guests, sponsors and other audiences. This includes how they use typography to engage readers and how they set up their content to not overwhelm readers.
